Any fans of Showtime’s Penny Dreadful out there? If so, you’re in luck: the network has made the season premiere of Season 2 available to watch for free a few weeks ahead of its May 3 premiere. You’ll find the video below.
From three-time Oscar nominee John Logan, “Penny Dreadful” returns with ten episodes and will find Vanessa Ives (Eva Green) and Ethan Chandler (Josh Hartnett) forming a deeper bond as the group, including Sir Malcolm (Timothy Dalton), Dr. Frankenstein (Harry Treadaway), and Sembene (Danny Sapani), unite to banish the evil forces that threaten to destroy them. Meanwhile, Dorian Gray (Reeve Carney) and the Creature (Rory Kinnear) are all waging battles of their own.
